RIGHTWINGERS lost their battle to commit Scottish Labour to single market membership yesterday and took to heckling a young party activist.

Delegates at Scottish Labour’s conference voted in favour of a “unity statement” supporting Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn’s Brexit blueprint.

As a result, a constituency motion promoted by former Scottish leader Kezia Dugdale and MP Ian Murray, which would have committed Labour to off-the-shelf membership of the EU single market, fell.
